Australian Open 2022 [Men] - Grand Slam

[Jelenafan]

Is this Dennis first win over a top 5 player since he beat Nadal back in 2017?

Don Fabio,

I think we have had a few conversations with Sasha and GS tournaments,he has really shown today he has not the mental capacity to win a GS tournament,his stat remains he still is unable to defeat a Top Ten player at GS level.I mean when you look at his draw it was not hard at all....Disappointing I feel that is an 'understatement' for a world no 3 player.

Sasha now falls to 4-15 vs Top 20 at slams

Yes, you are correct!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Excuses flow for the No 3 player in the world ...LOL! asking if Dennis had beaten a top 5 player since he beat Nadal in 2015
I suggest the fan looks at the current No 3 player in the world....and his stats at GS it is not pretty at all

 

[rafanoy1992]

The last time Nadal won a hard court slam (2019 US Open) Monfils and Berrettini faced other in the QF and the winner of that match faced Nadal in the SF.

Medvedev was in the other side of the draw too.

Also, both Federer and Djokovic were out before the semifinals.

Meanwhile, fast forward to the 2022 Australian Open, guess what the potential draw looks like once again…eerily similar

Zverev said,

Credit to Shapovalov,but he added "Maybe since Wimbledon,one of the worst matched I've played..-today was just in my opinion awful from my side".
Well at least he is being honest....not like his fans

I agree with you Margaret, this is leaning more towards the embarrasement. World no. 3 should not allow himself to fall down like this when all odds are on his side. If it was a tight 5 set match and you lose like that maybe it's okay sort of, but to go down without the shot fired is not good at all.

Don I do not know the answer to Sasha? you know he has had some great coaches in the past and let them go,seriously going forward he really needs a proper coach,not like the team he has at present.In saying that a coach can only do soo much,mentally is up to the player,something a coach really cannot teach.

Le Monf was in full entertainment mode, but also playing really well.

Matteo wins the 1st set 75 against Busta

Rafael Nadal vs Adrian Mannarino fourth round highlights

 

[Nadalfan2013]

Another great win by Rafa including an epic tiebreaker!

I'm glad that Zverev lost but Shapovalov will be still very difficult in the next match!

Overall, an amazing start of the year for Rafa and I hope he can go all the way and win the AO!

Thanks MM. I saw the 2nd set and yes, that all black is sexy.

Men 3:0, 3:0, 3:0, 3:0, Women 2:0, 2:0, 2:0, 2:0. When you expect tougher duels you get quite opposite.

 

[kskate2]

I believe the translation was the he was "hot." Which is not the same as merely "good-looking," or even "extremely" good looking. Good lord, where is @kskate2 when I need her?

Sorry, I'm here now. So here's what they should have said:
1. He is fine
2. Ooh wee, what a looker
3. Gurrl, he is luscious

It’s interesting just how close the matches for the next round opponents almost mirror each other in score.
